5.00Amazing experience with Jacobite tours!!! We only had limited time to spend in Inverness and we thoroughly enjoyed our 2 hour cruise with Jacobite, great value for money and a nice sized group of us onboard. Malcolm’s commentary throughout the cruise was so interesting and informative!!! Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to see the Loch Ness :)
